As nervous as this run-in has been, I always believed deep down we would do enough. And we have done
Everton ground out a third win in their third Premier League match of the week as they narrowly beat Brentford at Goodison Park to confirm their Premier League survival (* more points deductions notwithstanding).
The team were fantastic and worked themselves into the ground. They never gave in. Even at 2-0 and when they got the opportunity, they went for the third.
Tonight's hated local visitors to Goodison Park were sent packing after Calvert-Lewin followed up Branthwaite's scrambled opener with an absolute classic far-post header.
I’m enjoying watching McNeil in his more central roaming role. What a strike, to secure the points. It always looks better when it comes off the post! no
Fellow PSR felons Nottingham Forest are today's visitors in a massive game where both sides face the seemingly inescapable danger of being sucked down into the Bottom 3

Up at the crack of sparrows and caught the coach in good time. A full double decker of 70 die- hards absolutely desperate for a win and the news that Gana was unavailable didn’t exactly ease my worries. I’m no big fan of his to be honest but with the way we have been playing […]

A critical game in the Premier League relegation battle sees Everton take on Burnley at Goodison Park this afternoon
Total respect for Pickford. He didn’t rise to the bait he received from the home supporters. As well as the 3 great saves, he deserves the accolade for Everton’s Man of the Match for the way in which he conducted himself and blanked out the constant tirade of abuse – as much as he did for the performance and saving us from defeat.
Everton are on the road again for a trip to the northeast that looks daunting in view of the Blues' worsening form and the Magpies' stirring comeback against West Ham on Saturday.
